"Dragonflykiller is obviously a crackpot. I will not be cutting down the tree." Lol!! An extremely outdated thread but I couldn't resist commenting on the OP's last thoughts 13 years ago. The though of a greengage plum knocking a cat unconscious I find very amusing :-) Just how flipping big are these plums?? Now if we were talking about monkey puzzle cones, an argument could be made for an injury from falling objects! But a plum?? Seriously??

Look up saprophytic fungus :-) These organisms feed on dead organic matter.....which most potting soils contain to some extent. Harmless to the live plants growing there but often an indication of a too wet or too moisture retentive a soil media. Which may not be quite as harmless!

Thanks everyone! Interesting info! I didn’t know that about maple versus oak. The consensus seems to be that it’s oak flooring. Tim- I think you’re right about it being a bit newer than 1920s. Also I found some leftover planks in the basement, which I’m guessing are there from a remodel when they put it in. The stain is a little different though. It kind of matches the front entry closet stain, which interestingly is below the level of the living room flooring…which makes me think they added this flooring on top. Here’s a pic to try to show the height difference although probably doesn’t capture it well.

What interesting stories and remininices. Hope you won't feel even a tad stupid, roxsol - you've been learning and developing over the years, and becoming a better equipped member of this worldwide community. I've often said that it's a poor day in which one doesn't learn something! I think that Covid has given us some object lessons in the issue of us all being in this together. We'll need to follow that path much more extensively as we deal with this planet-wide climate warning crisis. Hope you all have a lovely and memorable May. ole joyfuelled
